We have signed #architectsdeclare. The twin crises of climate breakdown and biodiversity loss are the most serious issue of our time. Buildings and construction play a major part, accounting for nearly 40% of energy-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. We are committed to continually improving the sustainability of our projects, both in terms of embodied energy and energy in use. Retrofitting our existing largely Victorian housing stock in London has a major part to play in reducing the emissions of our built environment. We will be sharing our insights and approaches in posts to come. Watch this space for more details! #enerphit #passivhaus #embodiedenergy #lowcarbon #retrofit
